Additional Property Attributes

The Property was first developed for use as a lumber storage yard, lumber mill, and single-family residential subdivision prior to 1927. Historical city directory listings indicate a gas station operated on the Property (113 East McAndrews Road) near the corner of North Central Avenue and East McAndrews Road from 1935 to 1959. By 1951, several warehouse-type structures consistent with lumber storage operations were present on the Property. Historical city directory listings indicate a second gas station (Medford Fuel Co.) may have operated on the Property (265 East McAndrews Road) near the corner of Court Street and East McAndrews Road from 1951 to 1968. By 1974, all residences had been removed from the Property, warehouse-type structures were present only along the eastern boundary of the Property, and the dominant land use was a log storage yard. By 1994, former wood products manufacturing operations were no longer present, and all Property structures had been removed.
The assessment has revealed the evidence of RECs: 1) Much of the Property was part of a wood products manufacturing facility from prior to 1927 until 1993. Environmental sampling conducted on the Property has confirmed the presence of dioxins in shallow soil related to the mill wood treating operations. A cNFA determination was granted for the Property by the DEQ in December 2015. The conditions prohibit residential use and groundwater use. The presence of dioxins in shallow Property soils is a CREC; and 2) An UST was discovered during utility trenching conducted in 2007 in the southwest portion of the Property. An environmental contractor removed the UST along with 736 tons of petroleum contaminated soil during the summer of 2008. The DEQ issued a cNFA for this UST release on September 25, 2009. The cNFA indicated that residual contamination remained in soil and groundwater, but at concentrations below those that would pose an unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. This Property issue is considered a CREC.
Other notable environmental issues (Not RECs) identified for the Property include: 1) Historical city directory listings indicate a gas station operated on the Property (113 East McAndrews Road) near the corner of North Central Avenue and East McAndrews Road from 1935 to 1959. Testing of soil and groundwater in this area identified no evidence of a release; 2) Historical city directory listings indicate that a possible gas station (Medford Fuel Co.) may have operated on the Property (265 East McAndrews Road) near the corner of Court Street and East McAndrews Road from 1951 to 1968. Testing of soil and groundwater in this area identified no evidence of a release; and, 3) Approximately 10 single-family residences were formerly present on the Property. Very few leaking HOT records were identified for homes near the Property and of similar age. Because there is no record of a HOT at the Property, and there appear to have been few HOTs in the vicinity, the potential for a release to have occurred from a HOT is not considered a REC. If a HOT is encountered during Property development, it must be decommissioned in accordance with DEQ regulations.
No additional environmental assessment of the Property is recommended at this time. During redevelopment of the Property, the developer must comply with the Property EES, including conducting all Property soil management in accordance with the Property Contaminated Media Management Plan. Since the EES prohibits residential land use, a developer contemplating residential use of the Property should engage with the DEQ in developing a plan for modifying the EES including but not limited to the design of engineering controls protective of future residents. Based on the Phase II assessment completed in March 2022, 1) methane was detected in soil vapor samples. The maximum methane concentration detected was 3.9%. This is below the lower explosive or flammable limit for methane of 4.4%. However, it is Stantec's
